What is happening with inflation, interest rates, energy prices, and the economy, and what does it mean for investors?

On The Charlie James Show (Wed, Sept 30, 2026, Hour 3), Charlie James leads a lively commentary touching on local politics, national foreign policy, housing trends, and high-profile legal cases. He opens by questioning South Carolina Governor Henry McMaster's leadership regarding fuel tax relief, drawing contrasts with Texas Governor Greg Abbott's decision on dyed diesel regulations. Caller input turns the focus to historical housing interest rates, prompting reflections on the 16% to 18% rates of the early 1980s versus current market conditions. The conversation then shifts to international affairs, where Charlie highlights President Donald Trump's pressure on foreign governments to address the persecution of Christians abroad, citing intervention in Nigeria as a primary example. He contrasts this approach with domestic law enforcement issues, sharing an anecdote regarding selective parking enforcement during prayer times in New York. Continuing his focus on local politics, Charlie accuses political candidates and state legislators of concealing their true political affiliations or stances to win elections. Finally, he addresses high-profile trial updates, including the Lindsay Clancy defense arguments and local child abuse cases in South Carolina, before concluding with an announcement for an upcoming political coffee event featuring candidate Darlene Graham.

Earlier this week, the Reserve Bank of Australia raised the cash rate to its highest level in 15 years, saying the measure was taken to control “elevated” inflation. We’re expecting that the RBA could continue to hike prices in the months to come, as a range of factors influence the prices of goods and services here in Australia. In today’s podcast, we’re going to chat through the RBA”s decision, get to understand why it was made and what it says about the state of the economy.Sign up to TDA's Finance Newsletter here.

William Blair macro analyst Richard de Chazal explains why investors may need to adjust to a world of structurally higher inflation, interest rates, and bond yields rather than expect a return to the economic conditions that defined the 2000-2020 period. He also examines how AI-driven productivity gains, capital investment trends, and Federal Reserve policy could shape markets and economic growth in the years ahead.

In this episode of the Matthews Mentality Podcast, Kyle Matthews sits down with Michael Brennan, Chairman and Managing Principal of Brennan Investment Group, co-founder and former CEO of First Industrial Realty Trust, and one of the most accomplished operators in industrial real estate.Mike's argument is that industrial is the rare property type technology has helped rather than hurt. E-commerce built the warehouses. Data centers absorb land. And robotics and automation are pulling manufacturing back onshore, because once low-cost labor stops being decisive there is less reason to be in Mexico or China. As he puts it, the best news for industrial may still be ahead.He has earned the right to a view. Mike bought his first building at 22, in October of 1979 — a six-flat and warehouse on the South Side of Chicago for $53,000, with effectively nothing down. He collected rents weekly and was his own janitor. Fifteen years later he helped take First Industrial Realty Trust public and delivered 40 consecutive quarters as its CEO. After leaving in 2008 over a disagreement with the board he started again, and Brennan Investment Group is now the second largest privately held industrial real estate company in the country.The conversation also covers how Brennan picks markets, why he watches tenants instead of forecasts, where he sees rates going, and how his company ended up as the single stock inside Warren Buffett's wallet.Topics covered in this episode:- Why industrial benefited from technology while office and retail suffered- Data centers, e-commerce, and the reshoring of American manufacturing- Buying his first building at 22 with effectively no money down- The Chicago fireman father who pointed him toward real estate- Taking First Industrial Realty Trust public in 1994- Delivering 40 straight quarters and the pressure that comes with it- Why he stepped down from First Industrial in 2008- Launching Brennan Investment Group at the bottom of the market- The five industrial facility types and how Brennan picks markets- Why he watches tenants rather than forecasts to choose locations- The single trait shared by every great professional he has worked with- Where he sees interest rates going and what would move them- The stock in Warren Buffett's wallet, and the phone call that followed- Sacrifice, work ethic, and what he would tell his 22-year-old selfMike also explains why he considers the company his only in trust, and why the point of building something is to hand it to the people who helped build it.Whether you're a commercial real estate professional, investor, entrepreneur, broker, or someone building a business over the long term, this conversation offers lessons from more than four decades in industrial real estate, investing, and leadership.Follow Michael Brennan:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/michaelbrennanLearn More About Brennan Investment Group:Website: https://www.brennanllc.comFollow Kyle Matthews CEO:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kylematthewsceoTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@kylematthewsceoX: https://x.com/kylematthewsceoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kylematthewsceo00:00 Manufacturing and Industrial Innovation01:19 Meet Michael Brennan02:31 What Is Brennan Investment Group04:01 Five Facility Types Explained05:11 Key Markets and Strategy07:04 First Building at 2210:03 Finding and Financing the First Deal13:51 Early Career Work Ethic17:45 Meeting His Future Wife20:27 Jesuit Education and Character25:18 Scaling to First Industrial26:34 The RTC Days30:00 Going Public in 199436:02 Public vs Private Life38:26 Stepping Down as CEO41:04 Starting Brennan Investment Group44:21 Market Selection Strategy45:37 Learning From Tenants47:03 Scaling Brennan Investment Group49:20 Building the Team50:21 The Trait That Matters Most52:14 LP Appetite and Product Types54:05 Strategic Plan and Operations58:54 Real Estate Cycles01:04:30 Interest Rates and Technology01:07:09 Sacrifice and Work Ethic01:12:50 Building Brennan's Legacy01:14:27 His Daughter's Husband Joins01:16:21 Parental Influence and Motivation01:19:52 Character and Painful Moments01:20:48 Teaching Work Ethic01:22:07 Advice to His Younger Self01:24:16 Reading Recommendations01:26:01 The Stock in Warren Buffett's Wallet01:31:39 Closing Thoughts

This episode tackles the common demand for lower interest rates and explains why bringing inflation down should be the priority. James Derrick, a 26-year money manager and CFA, walks listeners through how lower short-term rates can fuel spending and push prices higher. He differentiates the Fed's overnight rate from long-term rates that drive mortgages, and explains the Fed's two policy levers: rate changes and balance sheet adjustments. The discussion highlights the Fed's 2% inflation target, credibility questions, and why lower inflation, not necessarily lower rates, will provide real relief for everyday budgets.

There's been another interest rate rise, pushing it to the highest it's been in 15 years.  It's partly thanks to Trump's war in Iran fuelling global inflation, but the conflict is not the only thing putting pressure on interest rates. Artificial Intelligence is a factor too.  Today, the ABC's finance expert Alan Kohler on how AI impact rates and why it might also be the reason they fall again Featured:  Alan Kohler, ABC News Finance presenter

OpenAI is promising to 'do better' as it apologises for the handling of a hack involving Australia's Medicare database. The tech giant says it will fund better cyber defences and has scrapped a new model's release over safety concerns. Reports suggest the new AI model broke rules, using deception and not following human intent. Australia Correspondent Steve Price told Mike Hosking OpenAI is sending one of their senior executives to Canberra to front the inquiry and apologise in person. He says major tech companies want to build data centres in Australia, and they don't want something like this to stop them from being able to.

Live from Madrid (Sept 28, 2026) | Yaron Brook Show(Season 12, Episode 155)Watch now: https://youtube.com/live/sLrPRT7SZaAIf markets are pricing in "no adults in the room" on U.S. debt, mortgage rates are back above 7%, and Iran just got its president a seat at the UN mid-war — does anyone in Washington actually have a plan, or is everyone just improvising in public?Yaron Brook finally makes it to a webcam after a week bouncing between Tbilisi, Florence, and Madrid — and he's not easing back in gently. He opens with the story most people are ignoring: 10-year Treasury yields above 5.2%, 30-year above 5.5%, mortgages back over 7%, and a bond market that's stopped pretending anyone in Washington has a debt plan. Then he tears into Iran's latest fake offer to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, calls out Trump's red-carpet groveling to Xi, and makes the case that NVIDIA and a scrappy biotech startup — not government regulation — are the real answer to AI risk.

FBN Finance was built around the idea that agricultural borrowers should have more of the transparency and convenience consumers have when shopping for financing. Dan explains that FBN combines a digital application process and visible pricing with agricultural credit professionals who understand the complexities of farm operations. That becomes increasingly important as farmers navigate higher borrowing costs and become more cautious about how much debt their operations can sustainably support. For farmers with a farmland loan approaching a rate reset or balloon, Dan's advice starts before shopping for another lender: read the documents you already signed. Understand when the rate resets, whether there's a cap, what rate it would reset to today, and whether you can move between variable- and fixed-rate products. Starting early gives borrowers more time to compare alternatives and avoid getting trapped by deadlines, fees, or unfavorable terms. The conversation also explores buying farmland in today's environment. Strategic parcels may only become available once in a generation, but higher rates make cash flow and leverage increasingly important. Farmers hoping to purchase their first or next farm can improve their readiness by maintaining an updated balance sheet, filing tax returns promptly, checking their credit, knowing all of their assets and debts, and developing realistic projections based on today's commodity prices—not optimistic assumptions. FBN also offers prequalification options so a borrower can be positioned to move quickly when the right property becomes available. For operations already feeling financial pressure, the discussion gets more difficult but practical: evaluate whether every piece of equipment is necessary, understand profitability on owned and rented acres, examine grain-marketing opportunities, and prioritize the most expensive debt. Dan's recurring message is that time creates options. Whether you're refinancing, trying to buy the neighboring farm, or attempting to right-size an over-leveraged operation, addressing the situation early generally gives you more choices than waiting until a payment or maturity date forces the decision.

The crew is together again. And today we discuss high interest rates and the cost of American spending. In this episode, we explore the connection between rising government deficits, borrowing, inflation, and the pressure these forces can place on interest rates. We break down the spending problem, what it means for consumers and businesses, and why borrowing costs may remain elevated.

Interest rates are back in focus as the Fed raises rates, the 10-year Treasury pushes above 5%, and mortgage rates climb above 7%. We break down what higher-for-longer rates could mean for housing, consumer spending, inflation, and your investment portfolio—and why companies with strong growth, pricing power, solid cash flow, and less dependence on debt may be increasingly important in this environment. We also look at why Home Depot has caught our attention as housing affordability and the real estate market continue to adjust.Then we turn to the growth stories: SpaceX reaches another major Starship milestone, Nvidia announces a massive expansion of its stock-buyback program, and we look at two higher-risk names worth putting on the radar—Joby Aviation and its vision for electric air taxis, plus Natera, the precision-medicine and diagnostics company that has become a major holding for Stanley Druckenmiller. From AI and healthcare to autonomous aviation and the future of space, this episode is about finding growth while navigating a much more expensive cost of money.* This podcast contains general information that may not be suitable for everyone.

The Treasurer, is spruiking new data, which shows the latest federal budget came in 6 Billion dollars better than expected, but tomorrow the Reserve Bank is expected to hike up interest rates.

Live from FinCon, Joe sits down with historian and bestselling author Joseph Moore, Paula Pant, and Jesse Cramer to talk about what's actually keeping people up at night: AI concentration in the stock market, inflation anxiety that won't fully fade, interest rates that feel "stuck," and a housing market that seems rigged against newcomers. The twist is that almost none of it is new. From a Scottish con man's fake country bonds to the 1830s stock that was over 30% of the entire market, to a refrigerator boom that happened during the Great Depression, this conversation uses 300 years of financial history to put today's anxieties in real perspective.What You'll Walk Away WithWhy "this time is different" has been true in every single era of financial history, and why that's actually reassuring, not alarmingThe real reason today's AI-heavy stock market concentration isn't as extreme as people fear, compared to genuine historical outliersWhy equal-weighted index funds tend to underperform market-weighted ones, and what that reveals about betting against your own winnersA fascinating historical parallel between AI infrastructure spending today and the railroad boom of the 1800s, and where that comparison breaks downWhy the fastest way to build real wealth during a technological boom is often working in the industry, not investing in itHow the "golden handcuffs" of low mortgage rates are quietly fueling a broader sense of economic pessimism, even during a strong economyWhy increasing your income is one of the few truly controllable levers in your financial life, and why it usually takes longer than people expectWhy This Matters NowEvery generation convinces itself that its economic moment is uniquely unprecedented, uniquely uncertain, uniquely dangerous. History suggests otherwise: markets concentrate around a handful of winners, technology booms take decades to actually change daily life, and financial anxiety tends to track personal experience more than actual data. None of that means today's concerns aren't real. It means the emotional weight of "this has never happened before" is usually misplaced, and understanding that can be the difference between panicking through a normal cycle and staying invested through one.Resources MentionedHow to Get Rich in American History by Joseph Moore — Joseph's USA Today bestselling book on 300 years of financial advice, what worked and what didn'tAfford Anything podcast — Paula Pant's showPersonal Finance for Long-Term Investors podcast — Jesse Cramer's showMen Go To Mars — sponsor mentioned in the episodeSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
